    The impact this had is the type of impact I wish all of my work, hell all work has on me. The opening monologue sets you up to scene 2, where a string of okays absolutely breaks your heart. And that final scene? So beautiful. If I ever need to show anyone an example of a fantastic one act, this is where I'm going.

    An incredibly powerful piece about finding a way to work through a grief that tears them inside out and connect. Very well done.
